THE Twentyfifth Anniversary Bulletin of the College gives you the
history of our Work-Study program which has been developed
through the cooperation of Yale University and Connecticut business
and industry. You will no doubt also wish to refer to it for general
information regarding programs of study, purposes of the College, and
the provisions for veterans education under Public Law 346 and Public
Law 16. ■^^'i* ;
This supplement will provide you with specific information about
admission requirements, tuition charges, course sequence, and course
descriptions.
WORK-STUDY LOAD
The study load of each student must be planned in accordance
with his work load. Under the accelerated program a student working
full time cannot carry more than two subjects at one time and occas'
ionally he may find it necessary to limit his study to one subject. A
student working part-time or on a split shift (four hours) may carry
three subjects. Classes are scheduled for late afternoon (5:30 to 6:35)
and evenings (7:15-9:35), Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Natur-
ally, the length of time necessary to complete any one of the degree
programs varies with the study load.
I
THREE- YEAR PLAN LEADING TO DEGREE
This plan for men and women who are employed in full time
work is one which the New Haven YMCA Junior College has offered
for a number of years. Under this plan terminal programs are offered
in the fields of business, engineering, and management. The essential
materials of the basic technical courses of a regular four-year college
curriculum are included. The student carries not more than two sub'
jects at any one time, (20 semester hours during a year of four
semesters.)
TWO-YEAR PLAN LEADING TO DEGREE
In order to meet the needs of the students who may wish to carry
a heavier program of study the College is planning a schedule which
will make it possible to secure 30 semester hours credit during the course
of a year. This program is intended for the high school graduate who
may wish to work only part-time and thus be able to carry a full pre
gram of evening classes and a late afternoon class.
The pattern of subjects under the Two- Year Plan is not identical
with that offered under the Three-Year Plan. It approximates more
nearly the program that would be offered under the first two years of
a four-year program. The student studies a wider range of subject
matter, but does not take the advanced technical courses that arc possi-
ble under the three-year plan.
The possibilities of this plan should not be overlooked by high
school graduates and veterans who may wish to study and live at home.
To illustrate how it will work let's look at the following situation. A
prospective student may now have a job which requires four hours of
work in the morning. His afternoon hours will be free for study and
he will be able to attend classes three days each week taking both late
afternoon (5:30 to 6:35) and evening (7:15-9:35) courses. By doing
this, he will find it possible to complete his education in one of the
programs offered at the College in the same period of time that it
would take him to complete the first two years of college work if he
were enrolled in a full-time college program.
THE UNCLASSIFIED STUDENT
Men and women who are not desirous of working for the degree
may wish to register for one or more subjects in one of the regular
programs. All classes offered by the College are open to students who
have the necessary prerequisites.
Unclassified students may matriculate as degree students at any
time provided they meet the admission requirements for the program
of the curriculum of their choice.
I
ADMISSION TO THE COLLEGE PROGRAMS
Students may regularly begin programs of study at the College
cither in the spring or in the fall of each year. (See calendar.) Three
moans are utilized in attempting to determine the student's eUgibility
for admission to the programs of the College:
1. A personal interview
2. A study of the student's previous educational record
3. The results of entrance examinations which are required of all
students seeking admission.
Although the College prescribes no set pattern of high school sub'
jects as an entrance requirement, the following outlines of high school
subjects are suggested as desirable:
For admission to the For Admission to the Division
Divisions of Engineering and of Business
Management
English 3 units English 3 units
Algebra 2 units History & Social
Geometry 1 unit Science 2 units
Physics or Chemistry 1 unit Mathematics 1 unit
Additional academic Additional academic
subjects, not less subjects not less
than 5 units than _ 4 units
Vocational subjects, not Vocational subjects
more than 3 units not more than 5 units
15 units 15 units
ADMISSION OF NON-HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATES
Recognizing that many capable students withdraw from high school
prior to graduation, the Connecticut State Department of Education
provides an opportunity for these students to secure the legal equivalent
of a high school diploma by means of State Equivalency Examinations.
Students who hold State certificates may matriculate as regular students
on the same basis as high school graduates.
Candidates for the Qualifying Academic Certificate must: (1) be
graduates of or have the education equivalent to that of the eighth
grade, (2) be sixteen years of age or over, and (3) not be enrolled in
a regular day high school. In addition, they must pass examinations in
four areas of academic study, usually mathematics, English, general
science, and social science. The courses in mathematics A, B, C, D
(page 24) and English A-B (page 22) will prepare the candidate in
two of the four areas.
For the convenience of students, these examinations are given at
the College twice each year, in the fall and in the spring.
Students who are not high school graduates but meet the other
requirements for admission arc permitted to enroll in the College on
a conditional basis pending their qualifying for the State equivalency
certificate.

ANNOUNCEMENT OF SALES AND MARETING PROGRAM
In the Spring of 1946 a program of Sales and Marketing will be
introduced as a part of the post-war development at the College. This
program will offer opportunities for preparation for positions in sell-
ing, merchandising, marketing, and general distribution of commodities.

Description of Courses
ACCOUNTING
Accounting (A 11-12). Credit, 5 semester hours.
This course is designed to give a thorough foundation in the theory
of accounting. The fields of study covered include: interpretation of
assets, liabilities and net worth, preparation of statements, books of
original entry, ledged accounts, and closing books. In the development
of the general theory, actual business problems are presented for dis'
cussion and solution.
Accounting (A 21-22). Credit, 5 semester hours.
More advanced problems in the general field of accounting are
covered in this course. Special attention is given to the adjustment of
book records to reflect true conditions, to the preparation and interpre'
tation of manufacturing accounts and statements, to partnership account'
ing and problems, and to accounting problems affecting corporations.
The corporate balance sheet and the profit and loss statement, together
with their respective accounts, are interpreted.
Prerequisite, A 11'12.
Cost Accounting (A 23-24). Credit. 5 semester hours.
The basic requirements of cost accounting are developed during
the first semester. Studies are made of materials, labor, and overhead
accounting and control. A complete "Job Order" cost is worked out
by the student. Assignments include various problems encountered in
"Specific" or "Job Order" costs. A thorough study is made of cost state'
ments, reports for management ,and the control of distribution and
selling costs.
The "Process" type of cost systems is developed at the beginning
of the second semester. This is followed by a complete survey of
"Standard" cost systems used both as "Basic Standards" and "Current
Standards". The latest improvements in the application of standard
costs to budgetary control are brought out.
Prerequisite, A 11' 12.
14
Accounting (A 31-32). Credit. 5 semester hours.
This course is planned to cover subjects more advanced than those
of the first and second years. It will include branch accounting and
elementary coverage of consolidated statements, statements of applica-
tion of funds, and accounting for estates and trusts. Selected problems
from C.P.A. exaipinations will serve to review and drive home principles
of accounting and accounting practice covered in the first and second
years.
Prerequisies, A 21-22, L 1M2.
Auditing (A 33-34). Credit. 5 semester hours.
This course includes a consideration of the problems arising in the
practice of the professional accountant, particularly with reference to
balance sheet and general audits. Relationship with the client, the work-
ing papers, the audit procedure and program, the accounting principles,
the preparation of the report, the ethics of the profession, the procedure
to disclose fraud and defalcations, are studied and discussed.
The work of the course will include the study of textbook and the
working of a laboratory set for an adult of a textile manufacturing
company. Refinements and changes in audit procedure, resulting from
advances in the profession and from criticisms and requirements of
such governmental bodies as the Securities Exchange Commission, are
